DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

International Trade Administration


Antidumping, Steel Jacks et al.

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of Initiation of Five-Year (``Sunset'') Reviews.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 
as amended (``the Act''), the Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') is automatically initiating five-year (``sunset'') 
reviews of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders, findings, 
and/or suspended investigations listed below. The International Trade 
Commission (``the Commission'') is publishing concurrently with this 
notice its notices of Institution of Five-Year Review covering these 
same orders and/or suspended investigations.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Melissa G. Skinner, Office of Policy, 
Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. 
Department of Commerce, at (202) 482-1560, or Vera Libeau, Office of 
Investigations, U.S. International Trade Commission, at (202) 205-3176.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    Pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752 of the Act, an antidumping 
(``AD'') or countervailing duty (``CVD'') order will be revoked, or the 
suspended investigation will be terminated, unless revocation or 
termination would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of 
(1) dumping or a countervailable subsidy, and (2) material injury to 
the domestic industry.
    Parties wanting to participate in the sunset review being conducted 
by the Department must follow the separate procedural regulations 
promulgated by the Department (see Procedures for Conducting Five-year 
(``Sunset'') Reviews of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders, 63 
FR 13516 (March 20, 1998)). <SUP>1</SUP> In addition, because deadlines 
in a sunset review are, in many instances, very short, we urge 
interested parties to apply for access to proprietary information under 
administrative protective order (``APO'') immediately following 
publication of the notice of initiation of the sunset review in the 
Federal Register. The Department's regulations on submission of 
proprietary information and eligibility to receive access to business 
proprietary information under APO can be found at 19 CFR 351.304-306 
(see Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Administrative 
Protective Order Procedures; Procedures for Imposing Sanctions for 
Violation of a Protective Order, 63 FR 24391 (May 4, 1998)). Finally, 
for guidance on methodological or analytical issues relevant to the 
Department's conduct of sunset reviews, you may wish to consult the 
Department's Policy Bulletin 98:3--Policies Regarding the Conduct of 
Five-year (``Sunset'') Reviews of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Orders; Policy Bulletin, 63 FR 18871(April 16, 1998). We are making 
information related to sunset proceedings available to the public on 
the Internet at the following address: ``<a href="http://www.ita.doc.gov/
import__admin/records/sunset/">http://www.ita.doc.gov/
import__admin/records/sunset/</a>''. Finally, the procedural rules 
regarding filing, format, translation, service, and certification of 
documents can be found at 19 CFR 351.303 (see Antidumping Duties; 
Countervailing Duties; Final rule, 62 FR 27295, 27406 (May 19, 1997)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ A number of parties commented that these interim-final 
regulations provided insufficient time for rebuttals to substantive 
responses to a notice of initiation (pursuant to 19 CFR 
351.218(d)(4)). As provided in 19 CFR 351.302(b), the Department 
will consider individual requests for extension of that five-day 
deadline based upon a showing of good cause.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
